On what turned out to be the wettest 9th of December since last year, a very enthusiastic, albeit wet, group of Rotarians, family members and St John of God staff, worked tirelessly to spread and compact toppings for the path, arrange and plant out the garden, install the very colourful seats, lay irrigation and spread mulch.
Andrew was even able to get his son David out in the weather to help with some carpentry work! A varying range of skills were used, with some workers doing tasks that they have never done before, all in the name of Rotary. I would like to say a big thank you to all the people that put in their time and effort over the last couple of working bees and at other times inspecting the site and getting supplies and materials ready. Without all the behind the scenes work, the working bees would not have been the great success that they were.
Linda Allen’s job description widened considerably on Saturday to include gardening in the rain and keeping all of us supplied with hot drinks and food to keep us going.
